ONE TO WATCH: Hominidae

If atmospheric sampling and instrumentation is what you’re into, you better keep tabs on our One To Watch, Hominidae.

Hominidae (stylised Hominidæ) is a producer from Raleigh, North Carolina. His spacious beats are sprinkled with crackling nuances, drum compression of varying intensity and an overall chilled out nature. In fact, nature is the perfect word to describe his music, as his sounds could have been produced in an Amazonian rainforest for all we know. So far, Hominidae has dropped two releases on his Bandcamp: H+ in May last year and Pranayama in November. What I like most about his music is its organic presence in his music and its ability to envelope your senses, providing you’re sitting comfortably while listening.
